Why is a mchaine's actual output work always less than its input work?

Astone dropped into a well is heard to strike the water after 8seconds. find the depth of the well if the velocity of sound is 350m/s

Bob camina 200 m sur, luego trota 400 m suroeste, luego camina 200 m en una dirección 30? norte del este. a. dibuje una gráfica de los movimientos de bob. use una regla y transportador. b. use método gráfico y analíitico para hallar el desplazamiento total que bob recorrió. (magnitud y dirección) c. compare los resultados obtenidos por el método gráfico y analítico. (por ciento de diferencia).

Unpolarized light falls on two polarizer sheets whose transmission axes are at right angles. a third polarizer is placed between the first two so that its axis makes a 52-degree angle with the axis of the first polarizer. a) what fraction of the incident light intensity is transmitted through the first polaroid? b) what fraction of the incident light intensity is transmitted through the second polaroid? c) what is the angle of polarization of the light that enters the third polaroid? d) what fraction of the incident light intensity is transmitted through the third polaroid. e) what happens if the middle polaroid is removed?
